One of the most beloved buildings in Austin could soon become one of the busiest.

Seaholm Power, LLC

Late Thursday, developers unveiled plans for the Seaholm Power Plant in downtown Austin.

The new $100 million project calls for shops, businesses, restaurants and a new 22-story high-end hotel and condominiums.

"You could live there, you could work in the office, shop at the retail, it really could be a full-use facility," said John Rosato, manager partner of Seaholm Power LLC.

City Council members on Thursday got their first look at detailed plans for the almost eight acres of land along West Cesar Chavez across from Town Lake. They said they liked what they saw, but wanted to be sure affordable housing was included in the layout.
